Saddleworth, 105km north of Adelaide, is indebted to early pastoralist John Masters for its name. Masters, who settled in the area in the 1840s, named his property after his home town in Yorkshire. Saddleworth straddles the North Road and is the commercial centre for a region which is still dependent on the pastoral industry although land owners to the north are turning increasingly to wine.
A
museum brings visitors up to pace on regional history of Saddleworth and the
nearby towns of Waterloo, Marrabel and Manoora. Waterloo was once a staging
point for Cobb & Co coaches and horses on the Adelaide-Burra run, while
Marrabel which has been drawing rough riders from across the land to its annual
rodeo
